Ac-DL-Phe(3-CN)-OH, also known as Acetyl-DL-phenylalanine-3-cyanohydrin, is a synthetic amino acid derivative characterized by the presence of an acetyl group, a phenylalanine backbone, and a cyano group at the meta position of the phenyl ring. This compound is typically used in biochemical research and pharmaceutical applications due to its structural similarity to natural amino acids, which allows it to interact with biological systems. The presence of the cyano group introduces unique reactivity and potential for further chemical modifications. Ac-DL-Phe(3-CN)-OH is generally soluble in polar solvents, and its properties can be influenced by pH and temperature. As with many amino acid derivatives, it may exhibit chirality, with the DL designation indicating the presence of both D- and L- enantiomers. Safety and handling precautions should be observed, as with any chemical substance, particularly in laboratory settings. Its applications may include studies in protein synthesis, enzyme activity, and as a building block in peptide synthesis.
